    Not sure if it has been mentioned.  I have found that the only reason I would want to connect directly to the console for sound was the need to have mic support in chat while playing online.  Seeing that the Amico wont have this right away and all you are looking for is to get audio. Then I would use the external audio port on the tv. Most tvs have a port 3.5mm but you might find a bluetooth external unit to tap into the port then connect your air buds to that device.  

    You can also hook up the HDMI through a sound system receiver. Everything I got hooked up runs through my Denon receiver & I use my surround system for sound. Don't even know what my TV's speakers sound like (Probably the usual crappy). There's headphone jacks and BT on the Denon if I want to use headphones.

    Aleste is on the Master System and the MSX and I know Aleste 2 is on the MSX as well. Now that I have an MSX2+, both of those are playable for me. Blazing Lazers is Gunhed, though, since that was based on a Japanese movie called Gunhed which I have never seen. Gunhed is expensive, by the way. I think Space Megaforce is Super Aleste or something like that. I think I have it on my SD2SNES Pro, but it's been a while and I am not really a SFC/SNES type of dude. Anyway, the whole thing is confusing as hell. Eventually I'll get around to playing them all.

     

    Anyway, you are missing out on the XE-1AP! You have to get it so you can play the like 5 games that support it with analog control! The only other game that I know of that supports it is After Burner II, though.

    Why would I need an analog controller when this still works?

    SMS & MSX games were never released in the US, so I didn't know. There was a Game Gear version of MUHSA called GG Aleste as well, but only for Japan. Gunhed, now I remember. I assumed it was in the Aleste series because some Blazing Lasers' weapons are repeated in Space Megaforce. Maybe the name was changed by Hudson Soft as a tie in to the film.

     I didn't pay attention to the series during the Saturn/Playstation era. All I know is that Aleste was a long running series of shooter games made by Compile until they closed business & I read in a magazine that MUSHA was the 2nd in the series.

    Musha Aleste is cheaper. It also works with the XE-1AP controller! Nobody knows there was a controller for Sega hardware that had analog sticks and shoulder buttons before Nintendo, but there was. It's also pretty expensive now. They cost like 9000 yen. I need to go buy one eventually.

    I got mine new in 1991. But good advice on those that missed out.

    Mech game or shooter? Mech game that comes to mind for me as being epic is steel battalion.  I mean it does have a freak nasty controller I found mine on craigslist for 50 bucks

    It's a shooter. But the "ship" is a "Starship Troopers" style mobile suit, or mech.

    IMO, it's the best shooter on a system known for it's great shooters like Thunder Force III.

    No, but it's cool to have options.  As for the overlap, I don't know.  We'll have to wait and see what games come to the Amico.

    Old, derivative 2600 games are the last thing I need when there's only going to be 12 retro-reimagined games per year. One every 7-10 days in scheduling. Makes it 52 games a year... tops. Most likely 36, which cuts the annual retro game releases down to 9.

    Tommy,

    What about a mech style shooter for Amico?  Something like this perhaps?

    There is no other mech game that compares to that one. THIS is the game to be remade. It's that good. And the music is some of the best created for the Genesis.👍

     

    There's a reason why MUSHA cartridges go without a box for over $300 on eBay.

    Not sure why but I just had a vision... kind of like Demolition Man with Sylvester and Sandra.... and in about 30 years after the Big One in California... all that is left is a Vegan Restaurant chain and everyone... I mean everyone, will own an Amico 2050... and playing cribbage, various family games.... and remembering the "olden" days of 2020 when Amico 1st came out...

     

    So, what will Amico 2050 have on it?

     

    1,2,3... go..

     

    Oh by the way... hope Sandra Bullock is there in 2050 to play Amico with.

     

    haha
